Definitions
- This invention is related to a new nuclear fusion reactor and especially to the improvement of the wall structure of a vacuum vessel of the reactor.
- a nuclear fusion reactor e.g. a torus-type nuclear fusion reactor
- a ring-like vacuum vessel for confining plasma therein.
- the vacuum vessel is surrounded by toroidal magnetic field coils which produce a magnetic field for keeping the plasma in a confined space.
- a plurality of the coils are distributed around the vacuum vessel at fixed intervals.
- a plurality of magnetic field coils are distributed along the vacuum vessel, to produce a magnetic field which heats the plasma and controls the position of the field.
- non-magnetic alloy steel containing nickel As the materials for constructing the vacuum vessel, non-magnetic alloy steel containing nickel have been proposed.
- the vacuum vessel of the nuclear fusion reactor is deteriorated by the radiation of the nuclear fusion reaction, e.g. the irradiation of fast neutrons of 14 MeV. It was therefore proposed that Mo plate or W plate etc. of high melting point may be bolted to the water-cooled metal-base body of vacuum vessel as described in (Japanese Patent laid-open No. 55-94181).
- Mo or W etc. have such large atomic numbers that they are sputtered by plasma particles and permeate the plasma and thus cause a reduction in the temperature of the plasma.
- It is an object of this invention is to provide nuclear fusion reactors with a reactor wall made of strong structural members composed of composites which have an excellent cooling property, a small thermal stress and a ceramic property.
- This invention is concerned with the nuclear fusion reactor which has a vacuum vessel for confining plasma, coils around the vacuum vessel to generate magnetic field, and a reactor wall to be exposed to plasma, the reactor wall having a piled construction by metallurgically bonding a number of separate pieces of a heat-resisting ceramic material to a water-cooled metal-base body by providing fixed gaps formed between adjoining ceramic pieces and by grooves formed in a corresponding part of the metal-base body underlying at least some of the gaps.
- the ceramic pieces are desirable tiles to be bound to the metal-base body through an intermediate material to relieve the difference of thermal expansion between them.
- the intermediate material made of a metallic material is having a coefficient of thermal expansion intermediate between the tiles and the metal-base body.
- the metal-base body is desirably so constructed that it may avoid direct irradiation by plasma particles.
- FIG. 1 is the sectional construction view of the vacuum vessel of a toroidal nuclear reactor of this invention
- FIG. 2, FIG. 4 and FIG. 7 are oblique views of the reactor wall constructions of this invention.
- FIG. 3 is the sectional plane view of section A--A' in FIG. 2;
- FIG. 5 is the sectional view of section B--B' in FIG. 4;

- the coefficient of thermal expansion is preferable to be more than 0.05 cal/cm. sec. °C. and the electric resistance more than 10 -3 ⁇ /cm at room temperature for both. The ceramic is less damaged by sputtering, if it has a higher coefficient of thermal conductivity, because of much cooling effect. Therefore, the temperature of ceramic tiles can be kept low enough to be resisting against sputtering, if its thermal conductivity is more than 0.4 cal/cm.sec. °C.
- the material with the electric resistance of more than 10 -3 ⁇ cm at room temperature is preferable to be used.
- Ceramic tiles are composed of sintered ceramics of refractory compounds having a melting point higher than 1900° C. This temperature is needed for sputtering-proof property as well.

- metal-base body must be non-magnetic at temperature for use.
- austenite steel, copper, copper alloy, aluminium, aluminium alloy, titanium, titanium alloy and nickel-base alloy can be used.

- the width of the groove may be wide enough lest neighbouring tiles should touch together forcing out the solder material between them when they are soldered.

- the width of the gap is determined considering the volume of the expansion and contraction in operation.
- the melting point of bonding material must be lower than that of the metal-base body. Copper alloy containing manganese and silver are preferable for the bonding material when stainless steel and nickel base alloy are used for the metal-base body. These bonding materials can be used at about 900° C.

- the composite material of copper in which carbon fibers are buried, is preferable.
- the carbon fiber reinforced copper composite material is prepared by hot-pressing stacked copper-clad carbon fiber cloths at a temperature high enough to unit the cloths.
- the copper-clad carbon fibers are covered by a thin copper film in the form of bundles.
- the bundles are woven two-dimensionally. This shows two-dimensionally equidirectional coefficient of thermal expansion.

- the ceramic tiles are formed stepwise with projecting part 4' and cut part 4", so as to combine the projecting part 4' with the cut part 4", therefore the metal-base body are prevented from being exposed to plasma through the gap 14.
- the projecting part 4' and cut part 4" are arranged in the longitudinal and transverse directions. In order to lap edges of the ceramic tiles over other edges of not adjoining tiles not to expose the metal-base body 5, its end is to be inclined or one side of the tile is to be let into another.

- Table 2 shows the result of heat load test irradiating laser beam on the surface of the ceramic tiles which was set up by the above method.
- laser beam of 300 W/cm 2 was irradiated on the surface of ceramic tiles at a 100 second period.
- water of 8 l/min was flowed as the refrigerant for the metal-base body.
- any break down or tearing from the bonding part of the ceramic tiles was not observed even after 1000 times of heat load tests. And it was proved that heat dissipating characteristics were excellent, because the surface temperature of ceramic tiles and the temperature of the bonding part between ceramic tiles and the metal-base body were very low.
- the metal-base body which had a corrugated structure made of an aluminium plate of 5 mm thick in stead of SUS 304, was used. Beforehand, SiC ceramics and Cu-C fiber composite material were bonded. For bonding this Cu-C fiber composite material to the metal-base body, bonding material, which was composed of Si 12% in weight and the rest being Al and was 50 ⁇ m thick, was used and they were heated at 580° C. under the pressure of 5-10 kg/cm 2 , in the next place, taken out of the furnace. Then, one side of the assembly was cooled and the other side was heated with burner.
- An alumina plate on the market which was 10 mm thick and 40 mm square, was used as ceramic tiles.
- the brazing material foil which was composed of Mn 40% in weight and the rest being Cu and was 40 mm square and 50 ⁇ m thick, was placed on the metal-base body 5. 49 pieces of alumina tiles were placed at intervals of 1 mm on the brazing foil. This set was put in the electric furnace, and held in heating for 30 seconds at 870° C. under the pressure of 10 kg/cm 2 in the atmosphere of Ar, and then cooled in the air after it was taken out of the furnace. As a result the reactor wall was bent to be concave on the side of metal-base body, but the cracking and tearing off of sintered alumina did not take place at all. This bent can be removed by pressing the assembly on the side of ceramic tiles at room temperature, consequently the thermal stress of bonding part was remarkably relieved.
